Lesions in distal coronary vasculature present unique problems for catheter-based interventions. We report two cases of attempted transluminal extraction catheter (TEC) atherectomy for very distal lesions in long circular saphenous vein grafts. One case succeeded with a simple modification of the TE

Current techniques for the percutaneous revascularization of totally occluded vein grafts are limited by a low initial success rate, a significant incidence of distal embolization, and a high rate of early graft reclosure.

## Abstract A new family of four guiding catheters (8 French and 9 French) has been developed for angioplasty of aortocoronary vein grafts and native coronary arteries beyond vein graft insertions. In 67 consecutive grafts and native vessels dilated through the grafts in 54 patients, the procedural
